After visiting several detention camps. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is claiming that the detained illegals are being forced to drink toilet water.  Before reading a word about this latest manufactured controversy, I immediately knew to what she was referring.  This is the type of toilet that is found in prisons, jails and detention centers:

As you can see, there is a sink with tap on the top and the toilet is attached at the base of the unit.  Yes, the water supplied for both comes from the same inlet pipe, but all building codes require there be a check valve where water enters the unit and none can "wash back" or get back into the main supply line and I'm sure there's a similar, internal valve inside that provides the same function, where water from the toilet bowl cannot flow back into the sink line .

"Toilet water" was what my grandmother used to call dime store perfume.  I always thought that a strange name, but as is the case of many words that derived from other languages, it was called that because of the French term "Eau de toilette".   Even though Ocasio-Cortez lamented she could not pay her rent after moving to Washington, D.C., whaddya wanna bet she doesn't use toilet water, but instead something like Chanel No. 5 or the like?

If Zippy the Pinhead, AOC and a box of rocks were on Jeopardy, who do you think would win?

My money is on the box of rocks....although I would probably hedge my bets with one on Zippy, too.
